Glenn Smith Memorial Scholarship Endowment

The Glenn Smith Memorial Scholarship Endowment was established by the Board of Regents of The University of Texas System on June 8, 1989, for the benefit of the College of Pharmacy. Gift funds were provided by Behrens Inc. of Waco, Texas. The endowment honors Mr. Glenn Smith of Waco, Texas.

Dear Mrs. Smith,

I am honored and extremely grateful to be a recipient of the Glenn Smith Memorial Scholarship Endowment. Being a recipient means so much to me. I am very thankful for receiving this generous gift and will strive to do my best this year.

I am currently a fourth year pharmacy student attempting to finish my rotations and counting the days until my anticipated graduation date. After that I hope to realize my dream of opening my own independent pharmacy.

Since my P1 year, I have been active in many organizations including NCPA. During that time, through my peers and the many NCPA speakers and conventions, my love for independent pharmacy was kindled. I plan on attending the NCPA convention in Orlando this October to further pursue that interest.

As I finish up this year and become a respectable part of the pharmacy community, I look forward to making a positive impact on both the profession and on the patients I will serve. I hope to grow both professionally and individually. I know my goals are lofty, and a tough road lies ahead of me, but I am extremely thankful for the gift and for the chance to pursue my dream. Thank you again.
